Up at 4am and breakfast by 5 for Machu Pichu. Saw the rest of the Lares Tek guys in the queue including Petey, Doris, Leo, Claire and Emma. Got in nice and early at MP for the best photos and yes I took about 5000 of the classic shot, and some stupid ones.
Explored the city apparently there was about 800-1000 people living there when it was active and there is no explanation why it was abaondoned (only theories). It would also have been expanded further if they had not left the site. Went the sun gate to get another view and that was impressive.
The whole scale of MP is impressive but perhaps the locations and geography are more so, as it is in such an inaccessible site.
Train back to Cuzco and went out with some of the guys from the Lares andhad a big night out till the early hours. Cuzco really is a good party town!!
